By Northampton Borough Fire Department
November 12, 2026

Although a year has passed, Mike’s memory remains deeply rooted in the hearts of our members, his family, friends, and the community he dedicated so much of his life to serving.

Mike was more than just a firefighter and captain. He was a mentor, a friend, a devoted family man, and a familiar face throughout our community. From responding to emergencies to volunteering at fundraisers, helping with our Junior Cadet Summer Camp, and bringing joy to children as Santa during our annual Santa Runs, Mike’s dedication and compassion touched countless lives.

His years of service to both the Northampton Borough Fire Department and the Pennsylvania State Police reflected his unwavering commitment to helping others.

As we reflect on this solemn anniversary, we remember not only Mike’s service and sacrifice but also his humor, friendship, and the lasting impact he made on everyone fortunate enough to know him.

To Mike’s family, friends, and fellow brothers and sisters in the fire service, our thoughts remain with you today and always.

Captain Booke, your legacy continues to live on within the walls of our firehouse and in the hearts of those who had the honor of serving alongside you.

One year gone, but never forgotten.

🖤 Captain Michael “Mike” Booke 🧡

Forever in our hearts. Forever part of the Northampton Borough Fire Department.
